Hey, everybody, it's Marielle.
October is hands down my favorite month because I love spooky season.
It just feels like there's a little sparkle floating through the air.
My one neighbor put out this giant, dancing animatronic pumpkin.
Another neighbor always does a theme.
This year seems to be creepy dolls.
Picture a lot of dolls, and then double that.
We're talking porcelain dolls, barbies, cabbage patch kids sitting on the stoop, keeping watch over a glowing cauldron and staring.
Always staring.
October is a time for mischief and make believe, and not just for kids.
We adults also get the chance to dress up in character as anyone or anything.
It's really fun.
And being an adult isn't that fun?
Don't I know it.
That said, it is totally normal to get to this part of October and.
Not have a costume idea.
Cause, yeah, the options are limitless, but that's kind of overwhelming, right?
If you can be anything, how do.
You narrow it down?
